Tomb Raider is one of the only series I can say I've played all the way through, though I do admit the last one I played was Legend and that was a pretty damn good reboot as well. Lara Croft in a dinner dress? Ar-ruff.

That said, this looks even grittier from the get-go. Was Legend even considered a reboot though?

I consider it not a reboot. Legend started a trilogy and a spin off to be made. It was meant a reboot, however anniversary is in the same canon as BOTH Legend trilogy and the original series (1-Angel of darkness) which could put both in the same canon. I thought the 3 legend trilogy games where some of the best games of all time. I loved Legend, Liked anniversary and was blew away by Underworld. I did not like the spin off though, it was not really feeling like a tomb raider game. But i cant wait to play the reboot. Ill have saved up for an Xbox 360 by then too. (my PS3 took a doo doo)

Am I the only who thinks that TR 2012 graphics isn't better than it was in TR Underworld (PC at least)?

I just played the Underworld demo, I had it sitting on my HDD for a year or so before playing the dang thing, but I have to say, all the puzzles felt like I trained heartily in UNCHARTED and that game's combat clearly is the better. When Naughty Dog came up with Uncharted, the premise was to put the Indy hat on the Average Man, and offer up the similar experience, and they did, BOY, did they ever. But Lara Croft also stands to gain in the same respect that women can latch on to a character in the same way, but I found the platforming and puzzles VERY much feeling like the same gameplay, with Uncharted having better animations and, just, well, better execution, but overall not bad, not bad...

This topic was made way back in 2010, when the game first got announced, and has some articles and videos contained within it. As I said back then, I believe this should be a great game, but only if they do it right. The positive side to this is the fact that they don't exactly have any reason to be rushing the game out, so hopefully this means it will be a great reboot, and something that the series needs. I'm looking forward to it.

Just wait for Vanja and Street Mix to see this topic and add their view.

man, I'm not liking the direction of this game. no swimming, regenative health, instinct vision, and tombs are optional it seems. I guess they didn't want tombs to get in the way of the "oscar winning story". well, at least they haven't added any multiplayer component yet.
